Growth and swainsonine production of Swainsona galegifolia (Andr.) R. Br. untransformed and transformed root cultures

open access: yes, 1994
Untransformed and transformed root cultures of Swainsona galegifolla were established for swainsonine production. Transformed roots grew faster and produced higher swainsonine levels (62.3 μg g−1 DW) than untransformed roots (23.6 ,μg g−1 DW) or roots of
